Newcastle name & face to bike

bike looks sweeeeeeet matt! That frame is really nice. I'd say trim those bars down but I sort of like them in a weird, about to kill the person in front, way.

looking at some of the recent builds here is inspiring some bullhorn action methinks......

For anyone I havn't already bored with it yet, here my new build (only a year in the making) and I love it !!!
Shit iphone photos:

I've finally finished my build too. This was it in its original condition bought from rcyb:

And this is the finished product:

It has been a long time in the making and i'm really happy with how it's turned out.

Tidy ! nice transformation just in time for summer fun !

Agreed, two tidy bikes ready for Summer.
Black one, very classy looking conversion - simple and understated, I like it.
Ricky, the Ward looks bang-on, very compact and purposeful. I never get bored of looking at bikes like this. I'm guessing the front brake is just for emergency use only, cos you wouldn't wanna mark that rim?

Yeh thats the idea anyway. I would have liked to have run without but i don't trust myself or others for that matter ! haha

Know that feeling. My Viking looks so much sweeter sans front brake, but as you say.......

Looking lovely ricky... good to see it all built up!

Anyone know a tall, short-haired dude with a blue Vivalo fixed. Saw him ped-dodging on the pavement opposite Central station the other day. Bike looked pretty sweet from what I could see as it zipped past.

Mine:

that fort is tidy!

Agreed, thats one loooovely bike.

Well took me a but longer to post but here is my work of art. I thought the best way to learn fixing and building a bike would be to start from the frame and build it up. Made a few mistakes but its the only way to learn. Oh and its an old Raleigh Banana which I picked up for £30 of eBay and ain't spent to much other than the wheels which set me back £80.

Looks tidy and for that money who can complain ! Well Done !
